Post a new topicby mfringer on Tue Sep 29, 2009 3:45 am

I have been having some strange, seemingly unrelated symptoms over the past few years. Now, I am wondering if they are related, after all. My latest symptoms are some strange sort of vertigo I don't feel the room spinning, but I feel like... you know when you put your camera on where you can take a burst of still shots in hopes of that really good one? That's how I felt. The first time it lasted a couple of days and this time it was almost a week. I was very disoriented by what I was seeing and almost got in a car accident. I have a very hard time thinking right now although I do have little bursts of some sort of clarity. My proprioseption has not been working very well, I feel weak, fatigued and have not been able to make it through a day in the past week without a nap. I had about a two day span where I had muscle 'twitches' all over my body. Not the pesky ones you get in your deltoids or eyelid, but just activation of random muscle spindles throught my body. I have been sweating like crazy and freezing cold at the same time. I have also noticed some parasthesia, which might set off the sweating, I'll try to pay attention to that...

I have some healthy energy drinks that have a good shot of B12 in them that seem to help temporarily. I have not been diagnosed by a doctor, but now I'm wondering if the depression and mood swing symptoms that blew up not too long ago and caused my taking an SSRI, my ED issues that have plagued the best parts of my youth, the small size of my bladder, some sort of psoriasis or excema are, perhaps related. Help? Am I on the right track? Is this something my doc should pick up on, or should I point it out to her?

Thanks,
M.goingtofigureitout.
